Chapter 1619 Determination to Chongwu(2/2)
All the silver jewelry and food were snatched away, and even the herbs grown in the garden and the owner's pet dogs were taken away!
In these two attacks, a total of more than 180 people were injured or killed in the warehouse, Xie's house, and the refugees.
When He Lingchuan heard the news, he sighed: "It finally started."
Food prices have soared, and people's livelihood has become difficult. The refugees living at the bottom of Tianshui City are the first to bear the brunt and become the hungriest people.
They worked exhaustingly all day long, and the money they earned was not enough to buy a steamed bun.
What's more, the landlords don't have any surplus food now, and even the wealthy families are cutting down their expenses. How can anyone still hire them to do work?
In the past few days, more than 300 refugees, mostly old, weak and young, have starved to death.
If you can't make money or buy food, there is only one last resort -
Rob!
In fact, refugees have been committing crimes in Tianshui City recently, and the government even received 300 cases in one day. But before, it was just sporadic small fights, small robberies and small violence, which had no impact on the lives of the upper class.
.
The nobles and wealthy people of Tianshui City live in the North City and Northeast Districts, completely isolated from the common people and refugees in the south. The environment is quiet and the years are peaceful. Those with disheveled appearance, ragged clothes and stinky bodies are all kept outside and walk on
No further.
Of course there will be no homeless houses here.
However, in the robbery that night, the refugees gathered together and rushed into the house of Xun Gui in the north, smashing, looting and burning!
This is a heinous riot!
During the riot, nearly 200 people were killed or injured, including warehouse clerks, Xie's nursing home, and homeless people living in squatter houses.
By the way, two of Xie's nobles also died, the twelve-year-old young master and his mother.
But the supplies that the refugees grabbed were really rich, and they didn't have to go hungry for several days.
In the lean years, we dug out a rat hole.
The refugees who had grabbed the food scattered and fled, no longer caring about the team, they had to quickly find a corner to eat, and sometimes they couldn't help but eat pasta and flour on the road.
The beautiful trees in Beicheng District have also suffered. Houses in Tianshui City are generally made of stone, so more than a hundred precious ancient trees growing safely on the roadside have been cut down for firewood.
Dinner, delicious dinner!
Beside every wild campfire, you can see a few gorging mouths.
On this night when there was food to eat, at least for the first half of the night, they were even happier than most civilians.
The riots by the refugees shocked the entire upper class of Yao Kingdom.
How could these untouchables dare to rebel?
Is there any more royal method?
